Case Study

Hanna Sacks Bais Yaakov

Hanna Sacks Bais Yaakov, or HSBY, is one of Chicago’s oldest and most trusted educational institutions—but its annual fundraising dinner had gone stale.

The school’s business team needed to revitalize this critical source of revenue with fresh, emotive branding that would resonate with both parents + alumnae, and reawaken longstanding feelings of nostalgia and pride. For the second year in a row, they chose 14Minds to guide them through another successful campaign.

Why did you
choose 14 Minds?

“We approached Tzivia and her team because we didn’t feel that the previous company was creative enough or put themselves out there to fit our needs,”
Mrs. Chani Belsky Administrator at Hanna Sacks.
